[There's a brief flash of incredible brightness, the widest of smiles at Peggy's suggestion she'd like to keep in touch. Dirk is still startled and overjoyed whenever it happens that people actually want him around -- it's not something to which he's grown in the least accustomed. The question, though, brings him to a halt, drags something hesitant and almost alarmed into his expression. He looks like a man who has never been 'quite all right' in his entire life and has mostly resigned himself to that fact, and is therefore somewhat perturbed that he's being asked about it.

It's a very long story. A very long story he doesn't feel like telling, even, at least not tonight.]

Perfectly! Really excellent, actually.

[So he's waiting for it to all fall down around his head.]

I have been told I have an occasionally alarming turn of phrase. Sorry. No filter. Think I lost it somewhere. Ages ago, even; much too late now.

[So... no, but yes, but no. But yes. Mostly yes. He's fine.]

I will, though. Give you a ring about my findings, once I've found them. You too! I mean, anything.

[No, seriously. Anything, and at just about any hour too.]

[ Well, "excellent" is all relative. Peggy's made a life out of reading other people so she picks up enough to know that there's more to it than this; but she also doesn't know Dirk very well. In fact, she's only just met him. So she can't very well go digging into the why and how of it all here. But he seems like a nice enough man and she sincerely hopes he's got someone for him here. Or, well — she could check in.

She studies him gently, then offers a smile. ]

All right. Although I don't think I'd have anything very interesting to report.
